"Yes, thank you for coming forward and showing an interest in participating in your clan," She grumbled. "Right now, what we need desperately is a full fresh-kill pile. Beastspark's last hunting patrols yielded little to no prey, and the border patrols couldn't be bothered to hunt on their way back. Go find another warrior and bring something back for the pile. Try hunting on the WindClan border, with that new freshly-acquired land of ours. We might as well get some use out of it. When that's done, feel free to check with me again. I may have another job for you."

The top perked up when he wasn't being yelled at, a sheepish smile blooming as he dipped his head. "I'll do my best!" he chirped. Maybe there wasn't a reason to be so worried about talking to her, she was his Leader after all. He shouldn't look at her as the enemy...because she wasn't! "If you'd like you could tag along with me? Ah! Of course if it isn't too much of a bother being with me that is." he muttered, "If you don't wish to I'll just go ask someone who want's to go out on a stroll with me. Not that this will be a leasurely stroll that is- um..." At this point he figured he was just annoying her.

Snowflower gave her an airy laugh and pinned his ears to the sides of his skull "Sorry I'm not very good when comes to...Sorry." he paused, looking away from the Leader. "If there's no one speci-specific you want me to bring I'll just go poke my head in the Warriors den." he mumbled. Of course he was too much of a wimp. He wanted so badly to be on good terms with her, but he couldn't stop his voice from trembling. Couldn't look her in the eye. It was pathetic.

The russet apprentice was already making his way out when he heard his name be called by the Deputy, a prominent frown plastered on his maw. When Burnetsnap poked his head in the den, they almost headbutt each other. A startled noise gurgling from his throat at the, almost, impact. Cardinalpaw simply stopped, a singular strand of hair between the pair. "Yes. I'm in here. And yes. I heard." he huffed, tail lashing as he whipped around the warrior and out into the clearing. "Let's go! Get this over with you're both so slow." he griped.
